I just discovered vintage knit polos thanks to you. still trying to figure out loafers, there seems to be a fine line between casual upscale footwear and old rich dude and I haven't mastered it yet.

You are so good at helping men over 40 !! Your info is terrific thanks for sharing it!!!

Another awesome video! I have a really bad back looking for some casual looking slip on shoes that won't make me look to old if makes sense thank you

This is a topic that hits home for me. I wear jeans about 95% of the time and I will start to incorporate some of these styles into my wardrobe. I know that brown tends to go really well with denim and if I go to an event with jeans, I'll pair it with brown accessories.

Good combo's John! Wear jeans(501) all the time! except work! Rockabilly Kat!!

Excellent video!!! I was on the search for the perfect jeans for my body type. Years ago I discovered Bonobos. They have a shorter inseam available, an athletic fit, and finally- something worked perfectly without a trip to the tailor. I've moved to a jeans and t-shirt under a light sweater guy. Lot's of options. T-shirt in grey or black to contrast the sweater (v-neck or crew). On some days I'll break out the shirt and tie, which combine beautifully with a pair of dark jeans. I got a pair of old, scuffed up cap-toed boots that add a ruggedness to the look- my wife like them, so that's all I need. But then every few weeks, I break out a suit and everyone is floored. Great to have options.

Big follower and love your content. You make everything very simple and easy to understand. Always struggle buying jeans and takes me days.... and never satisfied even after I get them home. Love the slim/skinny fits and they look really good, but always loose from the waist and hugging the thighs! Never sure if I should go a size bigger or smaller. 🤔 and this happens with almost any brand I try.... Levi's, Zara, jack & jones, etc....

Love your videos, John!!🥂 I think jeans rolled up with a light sweater for spring (or fall) and paring it with some Birkenstock's is a nice casual look for a daytime playtime with friends! Also, you did a video a while back saying older men shouldn't wear jeans with holes in them and I politely disagreed. I do think you should reconsider because I think it's a look and done right I'm not mad at it! 😁

Heading into summer in Florida, it’s going to be hot. I’d love some thoughts on accessorizing/layering when it’s hot.

Legend. I'm so grateful to have stumbled upon your channel. I'd like to recommend FIDELITY Denim to you and your viewers. For our demographic, their JIMMY / SLIM STRAIGHT, Size 34 fits me perfectly. Curiously, so does their TORINO / SLIM, but in Size 36. The other models really don't fit us older guys. Stretchy and soft, they are comfy, like pajamas. Nordstroms/Nordstrom Rack carry these in store and online. Also direct from Fidelty. I'd hit them up for sponsorship. Next on my shopping list - trying to find the light blue blazer you wear in your videos. Thanks ever so much for sharing your expertise. 🙏

On point as usual. The video was really helpful as always. Thanks John,

Can't go wrong with a great pair of jeans, and an absolute essential in both men and women's wardrobe. Although personally, I'm delighted that skinny jeans are not as prevalent these days. Most men probably hate them, but you can't argue with the comfort of a loose mom jean, lol! Legend

Very nice dress shirt there John. As we on the northern hemisphere are entering spring, this is the perfect time to switch out those dark blue or black denims to some other color. Alternatively you can put on a brighter t-shirt or dress shirt. But if you like me have somewhat of a dad bod, brighter denims/trousers is a better option as brighter cloth items brings focus to that body part.

I'm 73 years old. I bit on the "husky side". What do you think of the "Hawaiian style" shirts, mixed with jeans or khaki pants?? Not necessarily the loud color shirts, but just that style.

Perhaps an idea for you for an upcoming video. Thanks for all of your hard work on your videos. I enjoy your videos and opinions very much.

If you're a *100% casual* guy, baseball caps are probably a better option. Flat caps are more versatile. I'll wear a linen flat cap with a t-shirt and shorts. I'll also regularly wear a tweed flat cap with a dress shirt, sports coat, and dress slacks.

@@mjjenkins8678 If you have joggers that are in a solid neutral color (charcoal, navy, brown, etc.) with no logo, those might pass for tech pants at first glance. Particularly if you tuck the laces into your waistband. If I was limited to slip-ons, I would wear my Chelsea boots or loafers for dressier occasions. During my 20s, I broke my foot and was in a walking cast for 6 weeks. The only pants that fit over the cast were my sweat pants. I was amazed by how many people managed to overlook that I was wearing sweats with a dress shirt, *and* miss the off-white cast sticking out at the bottom.

Cowboy boots. Rarely, if ever, do fashion influencers mention cowboy boots as an option. Unless the video is about cowboy boots, specifically. Then, they disappear from the videos rather quickly, again.
